Do you, the people, like fascinating discussions on food? Well, we just had one of those last night at RVANews Live, but TED (copycat) is about to provide more. Oh, also RVA food people got awards and press, as per usual.

A big-deal pig-deal is forged between Lockhart Family Farm and Ellwood Thompson’s, a Korean fast food place announces its intent to open in Jackson Ward, the Fan’s Martini Kitchen and Bubble Bar becomes another (live) thing, and Ardent and Patrick Henry Pub team up for a scrumptious beer dinner.
